At the end of this week, most of the bills that passed in the 107th Legislature, First Session go into effect, as happens 3 calendar months after the Legislature adjourns for the session.  That includes two of my bills: LB324, which creates an animal share program, and LB396, which creates a statewide farm to school network. More bills being put into law are highlighted in this Lincoln Journal Star article.

The Statewide Tourism and Recreational Water Access and Resource Sustainability, or STAR WARS, Committee, of which I am a member, continues its interim study work and last week our hearing in Ogallala on growth around Lake McConaughy was covered by News Channel Nebraska and you can read about and watch it here.
